Theyre not buying it to go out and hunt deer. You dont need an AK-47 or an AR-15 to hunt deer. Theyre buying it do bad things and we need to recognize that and address it.
Democratic New Hampshire Sen. Jeanne Shaheen said certain types of firearms like the AR-15 are the kind of guns that should be banned. She added that people trying to purchase the weapon which is popular among American gun owners are buying it do bad things.
Well, I think people need to have their voices heard, and what Ive heard from people in New Hampshire is they think theres reasonable legislation that we can pass including things like looking at the types of weapons that so easy for people to get, the New Hampshire Democrat said on Mitchell in the Morning on Monday.
The fact is, the AR-15, the gun that (Omar) Mateen used, thats a weapon of war; its advertised as being able do technologically advances in killing people that previous weapons have been unable to do and somebody who is buying that kind of a weapon isnt buying it for target shooting, she said. Theyre not buying it to go out and hunt deer. You dont need an AK-47 or an AR-15 to hunt deer. Theyre buying it to do bad things and we need to recognize that and address it.
The National Shooting Sports Foundation says there are anywhere between 5 million to 10 million AR-15 rifles in the United States, according to CNBC. The gun used in the Olrando shooting was not an AR-15, but a Sig Sauer MCX rifle, a similar appearing rifle.

The stupid is strong with this one.
Muskets were a weapon of war. The Founding Fathers seemed OK with that. Times change. Now we have better weapons. And, times being what they are, we may have need of them real soon.
AK-47 and AR-15 are 2 completely different classes of weapons, Sen.
One stupid itch with a ‘B’.
Of course we aren’t buying them to hunt deer.
We’re buying them when the need arises to defend ourselves from tyrannical government.
So yeah, the Rat should be afraid.
No, I do not need.
Yes, I want.
My right, as an American.
You are so correct, those 10 to 15 million AR’s do a lot of bad stuff every day.
Because protecting your family from insane muslim killers is a bad thing.
You should just lay your neck down on the chopping block of multicultural celebratation like a good World Citizen.

Available for target practice - Jeanne Shaheen...
Par for the course in Congress.
So hunting is bad? Target shooting is bad? What a typical LIB idiot.
Great for hog hunting.
I think I might get another one tomorrow.
So? Resisting tyranny is a “bad thing” to every would-be tyrant. It’s a good thing to free people. It’s pretty clear on which side of that Shaheen resides.
Like killing gangs of hard working youths who are turning their lives around... and break into people homes at night.
They know deep down that people are arming up because this government is corrupt and bringing in hordes of illegal aliens and Islamic savages.
I've always said that the gun control debate is the only debate where the Left can't hide or obfuscate behind their usual propaganda.
Protecting our families from the combination of EBT hungry hordes and the government is no job for a SPS 700.
99% of it is to do terrible things to pieces of paper
